Use Your W.I.T.S!

Join Norah and Joni as they educate children on body safety by demonstrating what it means to Use Your W.I.T.S!

Norah learns how to take ownership of her body, identifying moments where she feels safe. Using an easy-to-learn strategy, she shows how she can set boundaries and respond to instances where she feels unsafe and in instances where she simply does not want to be touched.

Use Your W.I.T.S! also includes additional resources and discussion points, encouraging adults to ask children questions and to explore the key issues in the book of body safety, boundaries, and consent.
